The proposed method of optimizing the design parameters permits automated design of various types of surge tanks.
|
| 2. |
For each particular type of surge tank the method calls for specific schemes of selecting the design parameters meeting the prescribed boundary conditions.
|
| 3. |
The method makes it possible to compare variants of surge tanks of various types with respect to their cost. The diversion is not taken into account, since a unified maximum pressure is assigned as the initial conditions of calculation in it.
